Quote:I've had such a schizophrenic opinion on Bortles over the last few months. Some days I like him, some days I think he needs a lot of work.


It might be a little bit of both, but today I like him. Just watched his Penn St. game and, for the most part, he played really well. I also liked his poise in a hostile Louisville environment during that game winning drive, sub-two minutes in that contest.


He has enough arm strength to make all of the throws, ideal size (6'4, 230), and good mobility. Plus, he doesn't shrink as the pocket collapses a la Gabbert. This guy actually stands tall and goes through progressions even when he knows he's about to get laid out.


So today I like him. Tomorrow is another day.
